News Flash! Spaceward Bound Takes SFSU Students to Lassen National Park ....
Spaceward Bound Lassen 2008
Aspiring high school science and mathematics teachers from San Francisco
State University and CSU-Chico have a unique opportunity to work
alongside scientists performing Moon/Mars analog exploration research. The
opportunity is part of the Spaceward Bound program, cosponsored by the
California State University (CSU) and the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration's Ames Research Laboratory in Mountain View, CA.
The program will be held in Lassen Volcanic National Park from August
17-22, 2008. Participants will have their expenses paid (including travel,
program fees, room and board).
The innovative Spaceward Bound program will implement "expeditionary science
learning", in which particpants work with NASA and CSU scientists and
engineers to perform science and technology research in the field and
learn and apply planetary exploration concepts, theories and ideas.
They will also work with the Centers for Science and Mathematics Education
(CSME) at both SFSU and CSU-Chico colleges to address the question: How does scientific
fieldwork inform and connect with the work of a 6-12th grade teacher?
You are invited to apply!
